  Great question, @chrispo86! This may be obtainable through the [Modes features](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360036107792-Control-All-your-Ring-Cameras-with-Modes). With Modes, you can customize a home, away, and disarmed mode. This means you also get to choose which Alarm devices you want included in the above modes. For a window that you might open often, this would be most useful. In a scenario in which you'd need to remove a sensor from an armed mode, leave the home, and then have that sensor return to being included in the armed mode, this can only be done by disarming and rearming the Alarm. At this time, once your Alarm is in an armed mode, a device's inclusion status cannot be altered in the Ring app without disarming first. There is also a [Bypass feature](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001173583-Bypassing-Devices), which will detect a tripped sensor during an arming attempt and ask if you wish for it to be bypassed. Even when choosing to bypass a sensor, disarming the Alarm will be necessary if you are wanting to include that bypassed sensor in the armed mode again. As we value our neighbors' feedback, we've created a [Feature Request board](https://community.ring.com/t5/Feature-Request-Board/idb-p/Feature_Request_Board). Feel free to add this and any future feature requests there. This will help us to organize and share your requests with our teams here, as well as allow other neighbors to comment and add interest, all in one place. :)

  Hey neighbors, the Ring Alarm Quick Exit feature allows you to open a door without disarming or setting off your Alarm. This feature is available with 2nd Gen Contact Sensors and a Ring Alarm or Ring Alarm Pro Base Station. After configuring the Quick Exit feature in the Ring app, you can press the button on your Contact Sensor to utilize it. The light on the Contact Sensor will blink green, indicating you have 30 seconds to open the door. The system will reset to fully armed after the door is closed. For more information on how to configure this feature, check out [this Help Center article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/4417964486676-Bypass-a-Door-Sensor-with-Ring-Alarm-Quick-Exit). :)
